First let’s look at what a Keshi pearl is.

Usually, a pearl is formed when something is embedded in an oyster, and the oyster develops a layer of nacre over it. This is true even with cultured pearls. The shape of the nucleus determines the shape of the pearl, which is round-ish.

The Keshi pearl is not formed that way. They don’t have that center to determine the shape. They can vary in shape, but they’re made of solid nacre, which gives them a lot of luster.

Keshi pearls are actually a byproduct of accidents in the cultivation process, so with advances in pearl cultivation, including X-rays to see how things are developing, they’re becoming more rare.
